Creation of Original Packaging Design Solution
Every business that sells products must take care of their packaging design. Innovative packaging design helps products become more visible and stand out from the large number of similar products. The consumer forms the first impression of a product in just the first 7 seconds, so it is necessary to ensure that the product instantly stands out and is very noticeable. According to various studies, from 76 percent to 82 percent of decisions to buy a product are made in a store when they come face to face with the product. Therefore, packaging design plays a particularly important role, helping products to be noticed, providing useful information about the product and increasing brand awareness.
The design of a product’s packaging can lose its impact and appeal to the consumer over the years, therefore, depending on the product category, it is recommended to update its design, and sometimes even completely replace the existing one. Aarambh can help in the creation of original packaging design solutions for FMCG manufacturers.
Marketing Concept: “Aarambh Ignite” – Sparking Standout Success in FMCG Packaging
Concept Overview
“Aarambh Ignite” is a targeted marketing campaign designed to position Aarambh as the premier partner for FMCG manufacturers seeking original, innovative packaging design solutions. Drawing from the critical role of packaging in consumer decision-making—where 76-82% of purchases are influenced at the point of sale and first impressions form in just 7 seconds—the campaign emphasizes how Aarambh’s fresh designs can revitalize brands, boost visibility, and drive sales. The core theme, “Ignite Your Brand’s First Spark,” symbolizes the “aarambh” (beginning) of a product’s journey with consumers, highlighting the need for periodic design updates to maintain relevance and appeal. This concept transforms packaging from a functional element into a strategic asset, helping manufacturers stand out in crowded shelves and evolve with market trends.
Target Audience
- Primary: FMCG Manufacturers – Mid-to-large scale producers in categories like food, beverages, personal care, and household goods. Focus on those with established brands facing stagnation or competition, where packaging has become outdated (e.g., designs unchanged for 3-5 years).
- Secondary: Brand Managers and Marketing Teams – Decision-makers in FMCG companies who prioritize impulse-buy optimization and brand differentiation.
- Demographics: Global, with emphasis on emerging markets like India, Southeast Asia, and Africa, where FMCG growth is rapid and visual appeal drives consumer loyalty.
- Pain Points Addressed: Overlooked products on shelves, declining brand awareness, and the high cost of lost in-store conversions due to uninspiring packaging.
